1. How can rhetorical practices be attuned to local cultures and their diverse knowledge-making practices? 

Utilizing different forms of communication and platforms (such as digital and social media, for example) that will allow the practice of authenticity, creative teaching, and openness to different perspectives. 

In light of the methodologies such as “training cultural impacts,” and “digital ethnography” (adopted by Maher & Getto), what effective measures can be adopted by technical and professional communication scholars to create and disseminate knowledge from diverse places and cultures?

2. The study abroad program that was utilized at the university level was able to immerse students into a different culture giving them an alternative perspective that would disseminate their old perspective. By creating new / creative methods of teaching instead of having students know about different places and cultures exclusively from a textbook. By applying new ways of teaching – and adding an experimental way of teaching along with the lectures – it would make it easier to create and disseminate knowledge. Although the example from the reading talks about a study abroad program, realistically, not every student can participate on a program like that. However, by implementing different ways of teaching (books, movies, food, networking with someone from the specific culture being studied, use of digital media) the same can also be achieved. 

I would characterize “Minga Peru’s” use of her radio program to be strategic in how she goes about bringing about social change within the community. She used various sources of communication outlets from print, radio, television at one point and also had campaigns. I would consider this to be a cultural rhetoric approach. She created a space where people could find support, education, collaborative work, be encouraged and at the same time created change. Her topics were also very engaging because they were relevant questions from the people.

Community-oriented programs can enhance communication for human rights and social justice because the voices of the people that are typically silenced are being heard. Their voices and their struggles are going to resonate better than someone who is telling the story for them. By their voices being heard, this creates awareness and is impactful on an individual listening/reading. The effect of this knowledge first hand can create behavior changes and lead to more open communication, support programs and laws created around equality.
